I’m Jenny Sorto, an illustrator with a love for bright colors, fun lettering and patterns. My illustrations are influenced by youth culture, fashion, music and Los Angeles. My approach to color is a key part of my artistic practice that brings the audience into my creative world. Besides my figurative illustrations, I also enjoy experimenting with words to create lettering that speaks the same visual language as my other works. I like to work in multiple mediums, from digital drawings to painting in gouache and acrylic.

"Love the Way You’re Breaking My Heart" An Imagined poster for the band COIN. The themes of love and heartbreak in the band’s music inspired the composition of the figures, the color palette and the Valentine’s Day date for the fictional show. Digital, ink and gouache.

"How to be Bored" A response to an article about what it means to be bored and how boredom comes from a need for constant stimulation. These feelings are reflected through the abundance of activities done by the character in the illustration. Digital.
